He was co-founder of the path-breaking vocal group, Lambert, Hendricks and Ross, which set the modern standard for group vocalizing in jazz, pioneering the use of overdubbing of voices to simulate the big band sounds of Count Basie and Duke Ellington, among other giants.Īl Jarreau once called him “pound for pound the best jazz singer on the planet.” In my estimation, he was the poet laureate of jazz in the 20th century.

Jon Hendricks sang on the radio with Art Tatum, the greatest of all jazz pianists, in their hometown, Toledo, Ohio.

When Jewel and I held a housewarming party in the summer of 2009 in New Rochelle, NY, Judith and Jon graced us with their presence (see photo above with me on the left and Christian McBride on the right).
